hi all
I m facing problems like mentioned below while indexing, If anyone has any
help to offer i would to obliged....
**** couldn't rename segments.new to segments ****
**** F:\Program Files\OmniDocs Server\ftstest\_3cf.fnm (Too many open
files)****
I am trying to index documents using Lucene generating about 30 MB of index
(Optimized) which can be raised to about 100 MB or More ( but that would be
on a high end server machine).
Description of Current Case:
#---Each Document has four fields (One Text field, and 3 other Keyword
Fields).
#---The analyzer is based on a StopFilter and a PorterStemFilter.
#---I am using a Compaq PIII, 128 MB RAM, 650 MHz.
#---mergeFactor is set to 25, and I am optimizing the index after adding
about 20 Documents.
#---Using Lucene Release 1.2
Problem Faced
After adding about 4000 Documents generating an index of 30 MB, I initially
got an error saying, **** couldn't rename segments.new to segments ****
after which the IndexReader or the IndexWriter to the current index couldnot
be opened.
Then I changed a couple of settings,
#---mergeFactor=20 and Optimize was called after ever 10 documents.
#---Using Lucene Release 1.3
Problem Faced
After adding about 1500 Documents generating an index of 10 MB, I initially
got an error saying, **** F:\Program Files\OmniDocs Server\ftstest\_3cf.fnm
(Too many open files)**** after which the IndexWriter to the current index
couldnot be opened.
Now my requirement needs to have a much much larger index (practically) and
I am actually at the point where these errors are coming unpredictably.
Please if anyone could guide me on this ASAP.
Thanx in advance
Regards
Amit
